New South Wales By:Jason Isbell Album: Southeastern Tabbed by: the JK5000 Capo 2, chords relative to capo Intro: D

Here we^D sit, across the ta^Gble from each ot^Dher A thousand ^Gmiles from both our m^Dothers Barely o^E7ld enough to r^Aust. Here we ^Dsit, pretending ^Gboth our hearts a^Dre anchored Taking ca^Gndy from these s^Dtrangers Amidst the d^Aiesel and the du^Dst.

Here we si^Dt, singing wo^Grds nobody t^Daught us. Drinking f^Gire and spitting s^Dawdust Trying to ^E7teach ourselves to b^Areathe. We haven't ^Dyet, but every c^Ghorus brings us c^Dloser Every ^Gflyer and every p^Doster Gives a p^Aiece of what we n^Deed.

Chorus 1:

And the ^Gsand that they call cocaine cost you ^Dtwice as much as gold You'd be ^Gbetter of to drink your coffee bl^Aack But I s^Dwear the l^D/C#and it lis^D/Btened to t^D/Ahe stori^Ges that we told ^D God ^Dbless the busted ^Aboat boat that brings us ^Gback ^D

Mornings r^Dough, it don't give a d^Gamn about the ^Dmission Has no aest^Ghetic or trad^Dition, Only les^E7sons never le^Aarned. And I'd had ^Denough, about a ^Gmonth ago tom^Dorrow. Parting h^Golds no trace of s^Dorrow For the b^Aitter and the b^Durned.

Chorus 2:

And the ^Gpiss they call tequila even W^Daylon wouldn't drink Well I'd^G rather sip this Listerine I p^Aacked But i s^Dwear I'^D/C#ve never s^D/Been a be^D/Atter p^Glace to sit and thi^Dnk God^D bless the busted s^Ahip that brings us ba^Gck ^D

(violin and picking solo) Repeat Chorus 1

God ^Dbless the busted ^Aboat that brings us ^Gback ^D(x2) END
